The day was Tuesday, regular day as usual. For some strange reason there was nothing different about anything at all. Me a Doctor 12 had not been together that long. Maybe about a month, it's hard to say, but we have already had so many adventures! But on this particular Tuesday we find our Doctor taking a shower! He was singing like he normally does. He eleventh voice sounded better than his twelfth. Probably because of his new Scottish ascent. I was getting used to it at the time but I can understand what he's saying now! Unless it's some nonsense about the Tardis. I was just walking past the bathrooms when I heard the Doctor talking to someone. He could have just been talking to him self, as always, but he was not. His voice was more serious like he was talking to a threat or a alien. I didn't want to go in just in case he was talking to him self naked. So I called for him.
"Doctor is that you?" There was a slight pause as the Doctor whispered.
"Back in a minute" The Doctor came strolling out the bathroom, fully clothed, and put his arms out as if to give me a big hug.
"Clara! How is my favourite companion? Do you want me to get you anything, like some food, water or a little trip to a planet or space station? Mabey London in 4015? Huh?"
I looked confused while I'm been squished tightly against the Doctors chest so I said;
"Who were you talking to?" I was worried what the response might be so I kind of stepped back as the Doctor let go. He lent forward.
"Well, I will show you!"
The Doctor ran into the bathroom. I didn't want o follow him so I just waited for him to call me. He came out with a little yellow box that he carried gently in both his hands. These were air holes in the top of the box with an slightly opened lid that looked like it had been opened a lot of times. The Doctor rarely had pets that were not robots. He told me all about K9 and how he blew up the Krilitane to save a whole school full of kids. He opens the lid.
"His name is Buns and he's all yours!" He was a cream dog with a page bushy tail and four legs. The only things different about him was the fact he had two glowing red eyes and a large brown lightning-shaped stripe on his side. He was the cutest thing I had ever seen. He still is. The Doctor put him into my hands. His claws dug into my fingers but I didn't mind. He looked up at me like he could not look at anything else. Then he let out the biggest yawn I had ever seen! His teeth were as small as a baby's but his toung was as long as an arm! The Doctor said that one lick on a wound it would heel in less than an hour.
"He needs a nap! I tried to make him go to sleep last night but he was so exited to see you next week. I was going to wait till your birthday but it can be an early present!"
"How did it know I was coming. I mean you must have told him." I said as the Doctor looked in his pocket. He pulled out a little glass jar. Inside was a small creature with a wiggling tail and a pig like snout for a face. He walked over to me and hugged me again. I could tell it was a trick as soon as he opened the jar and shoved t in my ear! It moved a bit and then sunk slowly into my tubes. The Doctor started speaking in another language and as the creature sunk in the Doctor sounded more and more English!
That was my favourite Tuesday with the Doctor. But as the Tuesdays past, so did my Doctor. 365 Tuesdays later I decided it that my time with the Doctor was over now.
On this particular Tuesday we find our Doctor taking a shower! He was singing like he normally does. But this time I didn't want to walk past the bathrooms to find the Doctor talking to himself. Everything was ready. The spacesuit. The food. Buns.
I put the helmet on my head along with the rest in an air tight backpack! I held Buns as close to my chest as possible, as the Doctor did to me. Jump! Right into space. The place that I was born to be. But as I fell a looked back, to see a small yellow present with holes in the lid, orbiting around the blue box I called home.
